Congress Wants Answers on How China's Slave Labor Goods Are Getting Into US

Congressional investigators recently found that grocery stores around the country, including in Washington, D.C., and its surrounding suburbs, are selling red jujube dates, an Asian fruit that is produced and packaged using Uyghur slave labor in China's contested Xinjiang province. A coalition of 27 Republican lawmakers is demanding answers from the Treasury Department and Customs and Border Protection about how these goods are making their way to American shelves and enriching Communist companies that rely on slave labor, according to a copy of the letter obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
